Project description
The scope in these areas included dry fire upgrading, 316 stainless steel balustrade upgrades to balconies and stairs, structural modifications due to corrosive environment, native landscaping, irrigation, drainage, fire rating of LIAs. All works were conducted within a live environment and detailed long-range programming was coordinated to schedule rooms / areas to enable us to carry out works progressively.
During the works we proactively tested for HAZMATs and removed LCM dust in the ceiling voids. Consultants and our certifier inspected the works progressively.
Innovations and value adding long term benefits
Buildster offered a re-selection of plants to a hardier native species suitable for coastal conditions to ensure the plants survive well into the future. Concrete repairs undertaken by Buildster were undertaken using a superior product and as such we were able to offer a 10-year warranty from product manufacturer.
Physical fire separation was constructed to reduce ongoing inspections and maintenance.
